After 258,000 miles on my 2015 F-150, I'm finally needing some new pads. Which ones does the board recommend? Something that will last a while. Hoping to keep driving it until the wheels fall off.

Duralast Gold from AutoZone. About $50 per axle.

Low dust. OE stopping power.

258,000 miles? Sounds like you should replace them with the exact same ones.

If you really got anywhere close to 258k without changing pads, replace the rotors during this job too. Probably safe to do that anyways.

I like powerstop on fords.

The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But, it's still on the list.

I recently replaced our Expy pads with OEM Ford pads. Excellent performance and low dust.

Make sure you buy the BRF designation.

How many pages on Google did you have to look through before you came up with that image?

I'd be willing to bet he wasn't looking for brake rotors when he found it.

How do you rate the quality of brake pads?

Longevity or emergency braking distance?

Would shortest braking distance matter the most?

Google shows Akebono as one of the shortest braking distance pads. I've never heard of em. Any good?

I sure hope so. I just ordered a set from RockAuto after reading positive reviews.

I had always used Wagner Thermoquiet Ceramics but the last set I got was super disappointing. I've never had so much brake dust in my life, plus they weren't exactly 'quiet'.

Akebono is great. They're OE on many applications.
